No turning back!
Band was marvelous today, never seem better. Well, I really miss this kind of band practices. Mr Chua inspires me a lot, and especially today. Playing alongside him, really makes me feel like I want to improve and strive for the better. My volume was really nothing compared to his, and playing the same part as him, really makes me try much harder than I usually do. It makes me want to play better, and improve to sound like him. With every passing note he plays, although he may play a certain wrong note, he goes on with it, and tries harder during the next break. I guess that’s really what I’m lacking. Once I stumble, I lose sight of where I am, and sometimes fail to go back to the mistake. All this comes with experience I guess. I’ve learnt a lot from today’s practice, now, I really know what it means to play LOUD. What I’m playing now, is nothing as compared to Mr Chua’s playing. I will improve, as a person, as a musician and a member of the band. At first, I thought Mr Chua was playing loud to guide the band along as it was our first time playing the piece. And well, I figured out that perhaps that’s the actually volume he plays in a professional band, if I’m right, and I really want to join some professional band next time when I grow up, I really ought to improve, a lot. Not just me yeah, I will help the section as well. (:
Okay, today was pretty much alright yeah. I went to school early again for chemistry lesson. At first, I didn’t know where it was, so I climbed up to the class, and then saw no one in class. Then I decided to call someone. Called Gracia at first, but she didn’t know as well, however, she told me to call Caryn, and Caryn really did have all the answer. Went to the arts conservatory, I was pretty much just in time, the door just opened! Then, we started the lesson promptly at 8:00. Teacher was alright today yeah, but she separated sarah! Lesson was pretty slack, learnt everything before, what I really need would be practices. It was pretty fun as well. Then after that, Linda, XY, Rachael, Kelley and I decided to go the tanglin for breakfast, and supposedly to do homework as well. Homework was an utter failure la, we ended up eating and talking and doing other random stuff. After today’s trip to tanglin, I realised something, I won’t want to say it here though, it’s pretty personal. Anyway, after that, we went back to school for band at around 11plus, when they finished lunch. I didn’t eat lunch, only breakfast! J We played quite awhile as we find the key to the band room, in the end, XY, Kelley and I won, against Linda and Rachael. (: We found the key, actually we got it from tessa yeah! We climbed up all the way to the fourth level! I guess it was worth it yeah. I was the first one to start practicing, and blew the first note! I was really excited about band today, it was really great. Band is what I look forward to, what I really practice hard at, and what I do best at. (:
Anyway, from today, I realised that I’m a generous person, tag if you agree! [Be truthful okay!]
Is anyone going for acjc concert? (:
YYYYY
